From the acclaimed playwright of As Bees In Honey Drown and The Little Dog Laughed
comes this sweetly moving comedy is about friendship, nostalgia and the attempt to reconcile what you
thought your life would be with what it actually is. Three 70s television-obsessed men
try to regain their childhoods by tracking down their favorite local TV icon, Tamara Tomorrow,
a childrens television host who made the malaise of the Me-Decade
somehow bearable with her cheery predictions for the future.
What they find along their journey teaches them more about themselves than
they really thought they could know.
The NY Times called Music From A Sparkling Planet
"
a nimble escapist comedy
sweet, tasty and inebriating,
while the Associated Press called it "
a sweet-tempered tale
a charming comedy
about friendship, the future and an obsessive nostalgia for children's television shows of the past.
Music From A Sparkling Planet features an award-winning design team including
Kurt Boetcher (Set Design), Lisa D. Katz (Lighting Design), and Marina Mouhibian (Costume Design).
Featured in the cast are
Chris Damiano, David Kaufman, Kelly Lloyd, John OBrien and Michael Spellman.
